Supraglacial debris is widely distributed in the ablation zones of the glaciers in mountain valleys, and it influences glacier melting considerably. Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) presents promising results in terms of glacier classification and monitoring, but the scattering mechanism of debris has been unclear until now. In this paper, we attempted to verify the main scattering components...
In this paper, superconducting maglev is considered to replace or deload the thrust bearing sustaining a big force of a few thousands ton in the 1000MW Hydraulic generator system. Eletromagnetic suspension (EMS) and eletrodynamic suspension (EDS) from induced eddy current are discussed and compared about the advantages and disadvantages. EDS is more suitable for the system because of the high suitability...
The thermal characteristics of motor relates to the secure operation of electric machine, which is important in the process of improving motor's efficient and working capacity. In this article, the thermal field of a special single-side permanent synchronous linear motor (SPLSM) is researched. A 3-Dimentional (3-D) flow model of the SPLFM's external surfaces is built, the average wind velocities and...
It is a challenging problem to realize a robust and low cost gaze estimation system. Most existing feature-based gaze estimation methods strongly rely on cornea reflections, which are unstable to glasses, head movements and natural light. In this paper, we propose a novel gaze estimation method without use of cornea reflections based on a stereo camera system. Firstly, 3D Active Shape Models (ASM)...
A novel learning based framework for efficient heterogeneous faces synthesis is proposed. Based on the same spectral distribution of each modality, a statistical probability model is developed for the mapping learning problem between two groups of facial appearances, instead of the traditional linear regression model. Furthermore, in order to eliminate the influences of facial structure and spectrum...
In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for shape initialization and 3D pose alignment in Active Shape Model (ASM). Instead of initializing with average shape in previous works, we build a scatter data interpolation model from key points to obtain the initial shape, which ensures shape initialized around face organs. These key points are chosen from organs of face shape and located with a strong...
